As promised yesterday, BMW has dropped another teaser video of the upcoming M5, and it yields a clearer look at the 500-plus-hp sedan as it slides across snow-covered back roads. (This sneak peek was scheduled to drop tomorrow; it seems that Thursday is the new Friday in Munich.) Though it’s more revealing than seeing the car in a dark tunnel, key parts of the M5’s body are still clad in camouflage. M division head Kay Segler also appears in the clip, promising the M5 will exude traits of both an executive sedan and a sports car—which is, uh, the same goal as every preceding M5.

The hot 5er should debut at the Shanghai auto show in April. For more on what we expect, read our earlier report here.
